In South Carolina's predominantly Protestant region, the Catholic population is experiencing a surge, with the Diocese of Charleston tracing its history back to 1820. Despite challenges in the Bible Belt, Catholics are deepening their faith and experiencing growth. The Diocese of Charleston has seen an increase in vocations, and South Carolina's first Catholic college, Rosary College, will open in Greenville this fall. The demand for Catholic involvement among younger adults is also evident in overflowing Masses and the need for a new chapel at the University of South Carolina.
